How to repair a Frost damaged wall 

Thank you! Cheers!

Thanks Steve, it was a harder job than I anticipated but that's the trade

@@foundationgood123 .Yep most jobs turn out that way 🙄🧱👍🏽

If it had been designed and built properly with those considerations in mind it would still be sound. Notice how theirs know means of water to drain through the wall so it would just gather and freeze damaging the brickwork

Aco drains at the back on the patio...if water gets past then it will hit the water barrier (I put in) and drop down behind, down to the weep holes at the bottom

@@foundationgood123 Video shows very few weep holes in wall. Damp is a bad short term fix. Water Drips to the bottom. Should drill water vents too allow water drainage via retaining wall then should be good. Not your fault as its existing brickwork but try and resolve the existing majour problems

I reclaim ed as many as I could but there weren’t many I could save, fortunately there was some new bricks left over from an old project in the garden and I was able to use them. :-)

Thanks 👍

Yes I did bud

Thanks 👍

Thank you😀

Thanks again!

Thanks 👍

It stops the moisture and salts passing through to the outside wall which happened previously! The DOM sends the moisture down to the weep holes. Hopefully that will help protect the wall!

used the same ratio and builders merchants ie same sand and cement etc however I put lime in the mix to give it elastic

The drive has been re -done and silica sand placed down, there's an aco drain to catch the surface rain water, however water will still seep through thats why I introduced a further precaution by introducing a DMP membrane to deflect the water away from the front bricks!!

No weep holes ? Good worker 👍

@@keithhunter8158 The DPM membrane takes the moisture to the bottom of the wall where the original weeping holes are!!!

Just me, self employed guy
